I have never played any of the previous Fallout games, but in comparison to the third installment, I'm sure there's no point in even going back to them. From the makers of Oblivion (which I personally believe to be one of the best rpgs ever), comes Fallout 3, a game about the devastation of war, love, hope, and most certainly violence. Set in the post apocalyptic wastes of Washington D.C, you will play as a guy or gal who has lived in an underground vault for his or her entire life and one day must leave to find their father who one day goes missing. The events from the birth of your character to the climatic ending are all chronicled in the 20 to maybe even 40 hours you will spend playing the game. On your journey, you will be equipped with a Pip-Boy, which is like a big iPhone that fits on your wrist with flashlight. In the game, you will have a wide selection of weapons from baseball bats to plasma gatling guns, even swords (for the Oblivion fans). With these weapons, you will find yourself mowing down mutants in a very bloody fashion (This game is not for young kids and immature adults). But not even the awesome head explosions can save a game's combat. Most enemies are very very fast and without your V.A.T.S targeting assistance, you will be wasting all your ammo. More negative aspects of the game are the character animations that are exactly like Oblivion (maybe even worse?). Compared to a fantastic game like Mass Effect who's facial animations were the most realistic I had ever seen, Fallout 3 just falls flat. But besides the robotic character animations, there is some true beauty in Fallout 3. If your bored with all the games you already have and are looking for something that will capture your interest for many hours, get Fallout 3. Good graphics or not, it's a great game.
What's great about it: Nice visuals that present the desolate world of Fallout perfectly, interesting plot and characters, cool weapons
What's not so great: Not the longest RPG, clunky combative gameplay, out of place voice-acting, robotic character movements, glitches, etc..
I would recommend this to a friend!

this is the most incredible game ever developed. this game lets you customize your own character and his name. you start off the game in vault 101, an underground shelter led by the overseer, the vaults version of the president. the people in the vault were taken refuge during the atomic acolapse of 2077. the world was at neuclear war and basically bombed the earth to death. anyway, when you reach the age of 18, you discover that your dad has escaped from the vault. you eventually flee the vault. once you escape the vault, you will arrive at the town of megaton, a strange town built arround an atomic bomb. Walk up to moriartys saloon. he will send you to galaxy news radio where you will find three dog. Battle your way through the subways to reach it. after talking to three dog, he makes a proposal. If you fix up my radio broadcast signal, i will tell you where your dad is. To fix it, you must retrieve the virgo lunar satellite dish in the museum of technology. to get it, you have to make your way through super mutants, ghouls, and mercenarys. repair the radio broadcast signal and three dog will send you to rivet city. this is all i will tell you about fallout 3. quit playing halo or cod and get fallout 3 NOW!!!!! greatest game you will ever play.
What's great about it: weapons, build you character, and everything
What's not so great: nothing

Fallout 3 is by far the best game I have ever played. This game is totally addicting. I have played this game for over 6 months and am still playing the DLC and mopping up missions I have not finished. The world is totally open so you can feel free to explore every town, building and nook and crannie to find all the caps, weapons, stimpaks and other goodies. I literally jumped out of my seat a couple of times when a ghoul popped out unexpectedly. The absolute best part is that while you have a mission to perform you are not required to do it immediately (in most cases) so you can take your time and look around. I did not play any of the previous Fallout games but I can't wait until Fallout: New Vegas comes out. I nearly tackled a fellow tech-head to steal his pip-boy pin! Enjoy!
What's great about it: Complete imersion into the Fallout 3 world
What's not so great: Some glitches

If you like KOTOR or Oblivion, this game is for you! I was a bit skeptical at first, but after playing for a while I really got sucked into the storyline, and I'm really not that far into the game. There's plenty of side quests if you need a break from the main storyline. The only downside is that your health goes down pretty fast even when you're playing on "Very Easy" mode. But I guess that brings an extra challenge to the game.
I highly recommend this game if you like shooters and/or RPG's with a good storyline. I will be playing this game often!
What's great about it: Open-ended, tons of quests, pretty darn good story.
What's not so great: You die fairly easy.

Best RPG I've Ever Played

This is definitely the best RPG/single player game I've ever played. I've beaten it 4 times, including all the DLC, and I'm working on my 5th run-through. I got all my friends to try it, and they all love it. It may be a little confusing at first, but once you get into it, you almost can't stop. And if you need help, you can just buy the guide (which is extremely useful), or go online if you don't have an extra $20 you're willing to spend. So overall, this game is well worth it, and the game of the year edition comes out soon, so you get all the DLC for free if you buy it.
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: Sometimes freezes, needs a lot of playtime

the only bad thing about this game is you need patience. and i would recommend putting it on your biggest inch TV because it just looks better. like a 36-58 inch flatscreen would do. the first hour i thought it was pretty stupid but then it started to get better. this campaign is not like modern warfare which is only 5 hours of campaign, but fallout 3 is like 10 hours of campaign or even more.
What's great about it: able to choose 1st or 3rd person
What's not so great: required patience
I would recommend this to a friend!
